Muizenberg Mathematical Fever

Muizenberg Mathematical Fever (MMF) is a pedagogical exercise developed at the MMED clinics. This page provides links to data sets generated by the exercise, code for analyzing the data, and other instructional materials related to the exercise. For more information on MMF, please read our paper describing the exercise and its implementation:
